V SGRAIER.

Application filed January 13, 1926. Serial No. 81,035.

This invention relates to a kitchen utensil, the general object of the invention being to provide a scraper for scraping pots and pans and the likeand also for removing scales from fish.

Another object of the invention is to so form the parts that the pins, which may formed of staples or pins, are held in one part by a covering part which is bent over upon the first part and covers the heads of the staples or pins.

This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described.v

illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.

In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accon'ipanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure l is a view showing how the first form of the device is used.

Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of the device shown in Figure 1.

Figure 3 is a top plan view thereof.

Figure l is a section on line d-t of Figure 2.

Figure 5 is a view of a modification Figure 6 is a sectional view of a modification.

In these views, 1 indicates the body of the device which carries the pins 2 which act as the scraping means and 3 indicates the handle of the device which is grasped by the hand in using the device. In carrying out my invention I form. the device of a single strip of metal, the central part 1 of w iich is perforated to receive the pins and one end part a of which is bent over the part 1 to form a cover for the perforated part and to hold the pins in the perforations of said part 1. The other end part is bent up and curved to form the handle 3. Figure 2 shows the pins as being formed of staples, each of which is placed through a pan of the perforations with the part l engaging the bights of thestaples to hold them in place. Instead of using s les i may use nails or pins, as shown at 2 in Figure 6. In this case the cover part 4 would engage the heads of the nails to hold them in place.

Figure 5 shows a slight modification of the device in which the handle 3 is of considerable length and extends at an angle from the body part and is not bent at its end as in Figure 1. In other respects this form of device is similar to that before described. Figure 6 shows a device similar to Figure 5 but showing the use of pins or nails instead of staples. The devices shown in Figures 5 and Gare used in places wherev a long handle is desirable.

From the foregoing it will be seen that I have provided a simple and inexpensive device for scraping pots and pans and for scaling fish and the like and one in which the staples or pins are held in the perforations by a covering part which forms part of the body.

It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.

I desire itto be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.

What I claim is A device of the class described comprising a rigid strip having an intermediate part perforated. one end part of the strip being bent over to cover the perforated. part an the other end partbeing bent to form a handle and headed pins passing through the perforations and having their heads engaged by the covering part.

I11 testimony whereof I affix my signature.
